Getting started

You can add the Spider AF page tag to your site using Google Tag Manager.

This article helps explain how to implement Spider AF tags in GTM (Google Tag Manager). It is recommended to integrate directly to the header of a webpage because some ad blockers block GTM from firing. But in the situation where dev resources are limited, Spider AF can be integrated through GTM.
